With the first-ever Bike Miami event coming up on November 9th, Miami joins the growing list of cities to host a Bogotá-style Ciclovía “street opening” festival.

Bike Miami is an initiative by City of Miami Mayor Manny Diaz to promote bicycling, liveable streets and the growing urban neighborhood of Downtown Miami. The event will close Flagler Street from the Courthouse to Bayfront Park, as well as South Miami Avenue from 10th Street (Mary Brickell Village)to SE 4th Street and then north on 1st Ave to Flagler for pedestrians and bicyclists.
